July 16 Webinar – Data Analytics Strategies During Public Health Emergencies

Frequently, public health agencies face challenges like, opioid abuse, suicide prevention (Veterans), or our present crisis, covid-19. As we have seen with covid-19, one of our biggest challenges as a society is having accurate data analytics that Federal leaders, and society at large, can trust and drive the necessary actions to avoid a major disaster. One of the major challenges that Chief Data Officers face is that during these public health emergencies, their well thought out  agencies’ enterprise data management approach  to their data and information assets is simply not agile and consumable enough and they are forced to do the best with the data they have readily available.

During this webinar, our panelists from CMS and VA will discuss the data-driven approaches their organizations have taken in public health crisis situations such as COVID-19. We’ll discuss how data was used strategically and how the information and insights gleaned from the data was made available within the agencies and distributed to the public.

When: July 16, 12:00pm, EDT – 1:00pm, EDT
